That is, the first contact portion 22 extends along the inner peripheral surface of the battery housing portion 16 from the side portion of the main body portion 21, and the extended tip portion 22a is bent in the battery housing portion 16 in the radial direction, The tip of the bent tip portion 22 a protrudes from the terminal accommodating portion 26 into the battery accommodating portion 16 .

また、このときには、電極端子２０の第２接触部２３がハウジング１０に取り付けられる回路基板１１側（図７では上側）に配置される。すなわち、第２接触部２３は、回路基板１１側に位置される本体部２１の一端部（図７では上端部）から第１接触部２２とほぼ同じ方向で、且つ第１接触部２２から徐々に離れる方向に向けて延びると共に、回路基板１１側（図７では上側）に向けて傾斜して、先端部２３ａがハウジング１０から回路基板１１側に突出して配置される。 At this time, the second contact portion 23 of the electrode terminal 20 is arranged on the circuit board 11 side (upper side in FIG. 7) attached to the housing 10 . That is, the second contact portion 23 is gradually extended from one end (upper end in FIG. 7) of the body portion 21 located on the circuit board 11 side in substantially the same direction as the first contact portion 22 and from the first contact portion 22 . The end portion 23a extends away from the housing 10 and is inclined toward the circuit board 11 side (upper side in FIG. 7) so that the tip portion 23a protrudes from the housing 10 toward the circuit board 11 side.

これと同時に、電極端子２０の受止め部２４が回路基板１１と反対側の電池収納部１６内の底部に配置される。すなわち、この受止め部２４は、本体部２１の他端部（図７では下端部）から電池収納部１６の内部の中心部に向けて電池収納部１６の底面と平行に延び、この延びた先端部２４ａが電池収納部１６内に配置される電池１７の非電極面１７ｃ側（図７では上側）に向けて傾斜して配置される。 At the same time, the receiving portion 24 of the electrode terminal 20 is placed at the bottom of the battery compartment 16 on the opposite side of the circuit board 11 . That is, the receiving portion 24 extends from the other end (the lower end in FIG. 7) of the main body portion 21 toward the central portion of the inside of the battery housing portion 16 in parallel with the bottom surface of the battery housing portion 16. The distal end portion 24a is arranged to be inclined toward the non-electrode surface 17c side (upper side in FIG. 7) of the battery 17 arranged in the battery housing portion 16. As shown in FIG.

この状態が電極端子２０の初期状態となる。すなわち、この初期状態は、回路基板１１がハウジング１０に取り付けられる前の状態である。この初期状態では、本体部２１が傾くことなく保持部２５に保持され、第１接触部２２が傾くことなく端子収納部２６内に配置される。また、第２接触部２３は、ハウジング１０から回路基板１１側に向けて傾斜して、先端部２３ａがハウジング１０から回路基板１１側に向けて突出して配置され、受止め部２４は、電池収納部１６内の底部と平行に配置される。 This state is the initial state of the electrode terminal 20 . That is, this initial state is the state before the circuit board 11 is attached to the housing 10 . In this initial state, the body portion 21 is held by the holding portion 25 without tilting, and the first contact portion 22 is arranged in the terminal housing portion 26 without tilting. The second contact portion 23 is disposed so as to be inclined from the housing 10 toward the circuit board 11 side, and the tip portion 23a protrudes from the housing 10 toward the circuit board 11 side. It is arranged parallel to the bottom in section 16 .

この状態で、図９に示すように、ハウジング１０の下面に回路基板１１を配置させて複数のビス１１ａによって取り付ける。このときには、予め、回路基板１１に照明装置３０を電気的に接続するための一対の接続部材３７を取付部材３８の一対の保持孔３８ａに保持させ、この取付部材３８によって一対の接続部材３７をハウジング１０の切欠き部３６内に配置させて、照明装置３０の一対の支持脚３４の各折曲部３４ａの下側に対応させる。 In this state, as shown in FIG. 9, the circuit board 11 is placed on the lower surface of the housing 10 and attached with a plurality of screws 11a. At this time, the pair of connection members 37 for electrically connecting the lighting device 30 to the circuit board 11 are held in the pair of holding holes 38a of the mounting member 38 in advance, and the pair of connection members 37 are held by the mounting member 38. It is arranged in the notch 36 of the housing 10 so as to correspond to the lower sides of the bent portions 34a of the pair of support legs 34 of the lighting device 30. As shown in FIG.

この状態で、回路基板１１がハウジング１０の下面に取り付けられると、一対の接続部材３７の各一端部が回路基板１１の一対の電極（図示せず）にそれぞれ弾接し、各他端部が一対の支持脚３４の各折曲部３４ａにそれぞれ弾接する。これにより、発光部３３と回路基板１１とが、一対の接続部材３７と一対の支持脚３４とによって電気的に接続される。 In this state, when the circuit board 11 is attached to the lower surface of the housing 10, one end of each of the pair of connection members 37 is in elastic contact with a pair of electrodes (not shown) of the circuit board 11, and the other ends are in contact with each other. elastically contact with each bent portion 34a of the supporting leg 34 of the . Thereby, the light-emitting portion 33 and the circuit board 11 are electrically connected by the pair of connection members 37 and the pair of support legs 34 .

ところで、回路基板１１がハウジング１０に取り付けられたときには、図６に示すように、回路基板１１が電極端子２０の第２接触部２３に押し当てられて、第２接触部２３がハウジング１０側（図７では下側）に撓むように押し付けられる。これにより、本体部２１がハウジング１０の保持部２５に挟み付けられた状態で、傾斜角度θで傾き、この本体部２１の傾きに伴って第１接触部２２が回路基板１１側と反対側に向けて傾斜角度θで傾くと共に、受止め部２４も同方向に同じ傾斜角度θで傾く。 By the way, when the circuit board 11 is attached to the housing 10, as shown in FIG. It is pressed so as to bend downward in FIG. 7). As a result, the body portion 21 is tilted at the tilt angle θ in a state in which it is sandwiched between the holding portions 25 of the housing 10 , and the first contact portion 22 moves to the side opposite to the circuit board 11 side along with the tilting of the body portion 21 . The receiving portion 24 is also inclined at the same inclination angle θ in the same direction as it is inclined at the inclination angle θ.

そして、回路基板１１の下面に金属製の押え板１２を配置させて取り付ける。このときには、回路基板１１における３時側と９時側とを結ぶほぼ直線から６時側に亘るハウジング１０のほぼ半分の領域に押え板１２を配置させ、押え板１２の外周部の複数個所に設けられたフック部１２ａをハウジング１０の外周面に設けられた係止突起１０ａに係止させる。これにより、押え板１２が回路基板１１をハウジング１０に押え付けてハウジング１０に取り付けられる。 Then, a presser plate 12 made of metal is arranged and attached to the lower surface of the circuit board 11 . At this time, the presser plate 12 is arranged in a substantially half area of the housing 10 extending from the substantially straight line connecting the 3 o'clock side and the 9 o'clock side of the circuit board 11 to the 6 o'clock side, and a plurality of positions on the outer peripheral portion of the presser plate 12 are arranged. The provided hook portion 12 a is engaged with the engaging projection 10 a provided on the outer peripheral surface of the housing 10 . As a result, the pressing plate 12 presses the circuit board 11 against the housing 10 and is attached to the housing 10 .

このときには、押え板１２の３時側に設けられた電池押え部１８が、３時側から電池収納部１６を横切ってほぼ１２時側に延びて配置される。この状態では、電池押え部１８の１２時側の先端部に設けられた電池フック部１８ｂが電池収納部１６の外部に位置するハウジング１０の１２時側に設けられた係止部１０ｂに係合可能な状態になる。これにより、電池収納部１６に電池１７を収納することが可能な状態になる。 At this time, the battery holding portion 18 provided on the 3 o'clock side of the holding plate 12 is arranged to cross the battery housing portion 16 from the 3 o'clock side and extend substantially toward the 12 o'clock side. In this state, the battery hook portion 18b provided at the tip of the battery holding portion 18 on the 12 o'clock side engages with the locking portion 10b provided on the 12 o'clock side of the housing 10 located outside the battery storage portion 16. become possible. As a result, the battery 17 can be stored in the battery storage portion 16 .

そして、電池収納部１６に電池１７を収納する際には、まず、ハウジング１０の１２時側の係止部１０ｂに対する電池押え部１８の電池フック部１８ｂの係止を解除させて、電池押え部１８を電池収納部１６から離れる方向に引き起こす（図８参照）。これにより、電池収納部１６が開放されるので、電池１７が電池収納部１６に挿入される。このときには、ハウジング１０の外周部側から電池押え部１８の長手方向とほぼ直交する方向に向けて電池１７が電池収納部１６内に斜め上方から挿入される。 When storing the battery 17 in the battery housing portion 16, first, the battery hook portion 18b of the battery holding portion 18 is unlocked from the locking portion 10b on the 12 o'clock side of the housing 10, and the battery holding portion is opened. 18 is pulled away from the battery compartment 16 (see FIG. 8). As a result, the battery housing portion 16 is opened, and the battery 17 is inserted into the battery housing portion 16 . At this time, the battery 17 is inserted obliquely from above into the battery housing portion 16 from the outer peripheral side of the housing 10 in a direction substantially orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the battery holding portion 18 .

この場合には、電池収納部１６の内周部付近に設けられた電極端子２０の第１接触部２２における電池収納部１６内に突出した先端部２２ａに電池１７の外周部が斜め上側から当接する。このときには、第１接触部２２が回路基板１１と反対側（図７では下側）に向けて傾斜角度θで傾いているので、この第１接触部２２の傾きに沿って電池１７の外周部が滑らかに摺動して、電池１７が電池収納部１６に収納される。 In this case, the outer peripheral portion of the battery 17 hits the tip portion 22a of the first contact portion 22 of the electrode terminal 20 provided near the inner peripheral portion of the battery housing portion 16 and protruding into the battery housing portion 16 from an oblique upper side. touch. At this time, since the first contact portion 22 is inclined at the inclination angle θ toward the side opposite to the circuit board 11 (lower side in FIG. 7), the outer peripheral portion of the battery 17 is inclined along the inclination of the first contact portion 22 . slides smoothly, and the battery 17 is accommodated in the battery accommodating portion 16 .

また、このときには、第１接触部２２の先端部２２ａにおける回路基板１１に対向する辺部（図７では上辺部）２２ｂが回路基板１１と反対側に向けて傾斜し、先端部２２ａの先端が先細形状に形成されているので、第１接触部２２の先細形状の先端部２２ａにおける辺部２２ｂに電池１７の外周部が斜め上側から当接する。 At this time, the side portion (upper side portion in FIG. 7) 22b of the tip portion 22a of the first contact portion 22 facing the circuit board 11 is inclined toward the opposite side of the circuit board 11, and the tip of the tip portion 22a Since the first contact portion 22 is formed in a tapered shape, the outer peripheral portion of the battery 17 abuts on the side portion 22b of the tapered distal end portion 22a of the first contact portion 22 obliquely from above.

このときには、第１接触部２２が回路基板１１と反対側（図７では下側）に向けて傾斜角度θで傾いている状態で、先端部２２ａの辺部２２ｂが回路基板１１と反対側に向けて更に傾斜し、この傾斜した辺部２２ｂに沿って電池１７の外周部が、より一層、滑らかに摺動して、電池１７が電池収納部１６に収納される。このため、第１接触部２２の先端部２２ａが電池収納部１６内に突出していても、第１接触部２２の先端部２２ａが邪魔にならず、電池１７が電池収納部１６内に容易に且つ良好に収納される。 At this time, the first contact portion 22 is tilted at an inclination angle θ toward the side opposite to the circuit board 11 (lower side in FIG. 7), and the side portion 22b of the tip portion 22a is directed to the side opposite to the circuit board 11. The outer peripheral portion of the battery 17 slides even more smoothly along the inclined side portion 22 b , and the battery 17 is housed in the battery housing portion 16 . Therefore, even if the tip portion 22a of the first contact portion 22 protrudes into the battery housing portion 16, the tip portion 22a of the first contact portion 22 does not become an obstacle, and the battery 17 can be easily inserted into the battery housing portion 16. and well stored.

この状態で、電池押え部１８を電池１７上に配置させて、電池押え部１８の１２時側の先端部に設けられた電池フック部１８ｂを電池収納部１６の外部に位置するハウジング１０の１２時側の係止部１０ｂに係止させる。これにより、電池押え部１８の接触片１８ａが電池１７の電極面１７ａに接触した状態で、電池押え部１８が電池１７を電池収納部１６内に押え付けられる。 In this state, the battery holding portion 18 is placed on the battery 17, and the battery hook portion 18b provided at the end portion of the battery holding portion 18 on the 12 o'clock side is attached to the 12 o'clock side of the housing 10 located outside the battery housing portion 16. It is locked by the locking portion 10b on the hour side. As a result, the battery pressing portion 18 presses the battery 17 into the battery housing portion 16 while the contact piece 18 a of the battery pressing portion 18 is in contact with the electrode surface 17 a of the battery 17 .

このときには、電池押え部１８によって電池収納部１６内に電池１７が押え付けられるので、第２接触部２３が回路基板１１に押し当てられた状態で、電池１７の非電極面１７ｃによって受止め部２４が押されて、受止め部２４の傾きが解消され、これに伴って本体部２１および第１接触部２２の傾きが解消される。すなわち、この受止め部２４は、電池１７の非電極面１７ｃによって押されて受止め部２４の傾きが解消されて受止め部２４が電池収納部１６の底部と平行になる。 At this time, since the battery 17 is pressed into the battery housing portion 16 by the battery pressing portion 18, the non-electrode surface 17c of the battery 17 is held by the non-electrode surface 17c of the battery 17 while the second contact portion 23 is pressed against the circuit board 11. 24 is pushed, the inclination of the receiving portion 24 is eliminated, and accordingly the inclination of the main body portion 21 and the first contact portion 22 is eliminated. That is, the receiving portion 24 is pushed by the non-electrode surface 17 c of the battery 17 to eliminate the inclination of the receiving portion 24 and become parallel to the bottom portion of the battery housing portion 16 .

このため、本体部２１と第１接触部２２との各傾きが解消されて、本体部２１と第１接触部２２とが初期状態に戻る。すなわち、図６に示す状態で、本体部２１が初期状態に戻ると、第２接触部２３が回路基板１１に押し当てられて回路基板１１と電気的に安定して接続された状態で、第１接触部２２も初期状態に戻り、先端部２２ａの先端が引き上げられて電池１７の外周面１７ｂにおける厚み方向（上下方向）のほぼ中間部に対応して、先端部２２ａの先端が電池１７の外周面１７ｂに確実に且つ良好に接触する。これにより、電池１７は電極端子２０と電池押え部１８とによって回路基板１１と電気的に接続される。 Therefore, the tilts of the main body portion 21 and the first contact portion 22 are eliminated, and the main body portion 21 and the first contact portion 22 return to their initial states. That is, when the body portion 21 returns to the initial state in the state shown in FIG. 1 contact portion 22 also returns to the initial state, the tip of tip portion 22a is pulled up, and the tip of tip portion 22a corresponds to the middle portion of battery 17 in the thickness direction (vertical direction) of outer peripheral surface 17b of battery 17. It reliably and satisfactorily contacts the outer peripheral surface 17b. Thereby, the battery 17 is electrically connected to the circuit board 11 by the electrode terminal 20 and the battery holding portion 18 .

そして、時計モジュール６を腕時計ケース１内に組み込む。この場合には、ハウジング１０の上面に配置されたソーラーパネル９上に文字板８を配置させて、文字板８の外周部をパネル押え部材３５で囲む。このときには、第１の時計ムーブメント１４の指針軸１４ｂが文字板８の上方に突出し、第２の時計ムーブメント１５の機能針軸１５ｂが文字板８の上方に突出する。この状態で、第１の時計ムーブメント１４の指針軸１４ｂに指針１４ａを取り付け、第２の時計ムーブメント１５の機能針軸１５ｂに機能針１５ａを取り付けて、時計モジュール６を腕時計ケース１内に組み込んで、文字板８を見切り部材７の下側に配置させる。 Then, the timepiece module 6 is incorporated into the wristwatch case 1 . In this case, the dial plate 8 is arranged on the solar panel 9 arranged on the upper surface of the housing 10 and the outer peripheral portion of the dial plate 8 is surrounded by the panel pressing member 35 . At this time, the pointer shaft 14 b of the first timepiece movement 14 projects above the dial 8 , and the function hand shaft 15 b of the second timepiece movement 15 projects above the dial 8 . In this state, the pointer 14a is attached to the pointer shaft 14b of the first timepiece movement 14, the function hand 15a is attached to the function hand shaft 15b of the second timepiece movement 15, and the timepiece module 6 is incorporated into the wristwatch case 1. , the dial plate 8 is arranged under the parting member 7. - 特許庁

このときには、パネル押え部材３５の上側に配置された照明装置３０の発光部３３を見切り部材７の発光収納部７ｂ内に配置させて文字板８の上方に配置させる。これにより、時計モジュール６が腕時計ケース１内に良好に組み込まれる。この後、腕時計ケース１の２時側、４時側、８時側、および１０時側にスイッチ部３をそれぞれ取り付けて、腕時計ケース１の下部に裏蓋５を防水リング５ａと共に取り付ける。これにより、腕時計が組み立てられる。 At this time, the light-emitting portion 33 of the lighting device 30 arranged above the panel pressing member 35 is arranged inside the light-emitting housing portion 7b of the parting member 7 and arranged above the dial 8 . Thereby, the timepiece module 6 is well incorporated in the wristwatch case 1 . After that, the switch units 3 are attached to the 2 o'clock side, the 4 o'clock side, the 8 o'clock side, and the 10 o'clock side of the wristwatch case 1, respectively, and the back cover 5 is attached to the lower portion of the wristwatch case 1 together with the waterproof ring 5a. This completes the assembly of the watch.

次に、このような腕時計を使用する場合について説明する。
この腕時計は、通常、指針１４ａが第１の時計ムーブメント１４によって文字板８の上方で運針して時刻を指示表示し、機能針１５ａが第２の時計ムーブメント１５によって文字板８の上方で運針して機能を指示表示する。また、表示パネル１３に表示された時刻や曜日、日付などの情報がソーラーパネル９の３時側と６時側の表示窓部９ａを通して文字板８の上方から見える。 Next, the case of using such a wristwatch will be described.
In this wristwatch, hands 14a are usually moved above the dial 8 by a first clock movement 14 to indicate the time, and function hands 15a are moved above the dial 8 by a second clock movement 15. to indicate the function. Information such as the time, day of the week, and date displayed on the display panel 13 can be seen from above the dial 8 through the display windows 9a on the 3 o'clock side and 6 o'clock side of the solar panel 9 .

また、この腕時計を夜間などの暗いところで使用する場合には、２時側、４時側、８時側、および１０時側の複数のスイッチ部３のいずれかを操作して照明モードを選択すると、照明装置３０の発光部材３１の発光部３３が発光して文字板８を照明する。すなわち、発光部３３は、取付調整部材３２によって文字板８の上側に位置した状態で見切り部材７の発光収納部７ｂ内に配置され、この発光収納部７ｂが文字板８側に開放されているので、この開放された箇所から発光部３３で発光した光が文字板８の上面に照射される。 Also, when using this wristwatch in a dark place such as at night, the lighting mode can be selected by operating one of the plurality of switches 3 on the 2 o'clock side, 4 o'clock side, 8 o'clock side and 10 o'clock side. , the light-emitting portion 33 of the light-emitting member 31 of the illumination device 30 emits light to illuminate the dial 8 . That is, the light emitting portion 33 is arranged in the light emitting accommodating portion 7b of the parting member 7 in a state of being positioned above the dial 8 by the mounting adjusting member 32, and the light emitting accommodating portion 7b is open to the dial 8 side. Therefore, the upper surface of the dial 8 is irradiated with the light emitted by the light emitting portion 33 from this opened portion.

これにより、この腕時計では、暗いところでも、文字板８が照明装置３０によって照明されるので、指針１４ａによる時刻の指示表示、機能針１５ａによる機能の指示表示、および表示パネル１３による情報表示を良好に視認することができる。この場合、見切り部材７の発光収納部７ｂが文字板８側に開放されている。 As a result, even in a dark place, the dial 8 is illuminated by the illumination device 30, so that the hands 14a can be used to indicate the time, the function hands 15a can be used to indicate functions, and the display panel 13 can be used to display information. can be visually recognized. In this case, the light-emitting storage portion 7b of the parting member 7 is open to the dial 8 side.

このため、この開放された箇所を通して取付調整部材３２が腕時計ケース１の内部側から見えても、取付調整部材３２が見切り部材７と同色系の色、または黒色に着色されているため、取付調整部材３２が腕時計ケース１の内部から見え難くなり、これによりデザイン性が高められる。 Therefore, even if the mounting adjustment member 32 is visible from the inside of the wristwatch case 1 through this open portion, the mounting adjustment is not possible because the mounting adjustment member 32 is colored in the same color as the parting member 7 or black. The member 32 becomes difficult to see from the inside of the wristwatch case 1, thereby enhancing the design.

このように、この腕時計の照明装置３０によれば、ハウジング１０の上面に設けられた被照明体である文字板８を照明する発光部３３、およびハウジングの下側から発光部３３に亘って設けられて発光部３３を支持する接続部である一対の支持脚３４を有する発光部材３１と、一対の支持脚３４を保持して文字板８の外周における所定箇所に発光部３３の設置状態を調整してハウジング１０から独立した状態で配置される取付調整部材３２と、を備えていることにより、多様性に優れたものを提供することができる。 As described above, according to the wristwatch lighting device 30, the light emitting portion 33 for illuminating the dial 8, which is the body to be illuminated, is provided on the upper surface of the housing 10, and the light emitting portion 33 is provided from the lower side of the housing to the light emitting portion 33.
